Family Connect in Schools
Family Connect Service at SJPC
Our school, Social Futures and the Catholic Schools Office are in partnership to integrate the Family Connect in Schools Service into our school.
The Family Connect in Schools Service helps families to connect in with a wide range of services in the community. They can also accompany families to service appointments and case manage a support plan if a family needs a significant variety of services.
This service can support families with a wide range of issues including:
- Housing and homelessness
- Centrelink
- NDIS applications, access and coordination
- Domestic Violence
- Mental health
- Parenting education
- Transport
- Flood recovery
- Financial planning
